Abstract

The stabilized biconjugate gradient fast Fourier transform (BCGS-FFT) method is applied to simulate electromagnetic and acoustic scattering from inhomogeneous objects embedded in a layered medium in two dimensions. Two-dimensional layered-media Green's functions are computed adaptively by using Gaussian quadratures after singularity subtraction. The Green's function is split into convolutional and correlational components in order to apply the FFT so as to solve the scattering problem efficiently. The CPU time and memory cost of this BCGS-FFT method is O(N log N) and O(N), respectively, where N is the number of unknowns, which is significantly more efficient than using the method of moments (MoM). As a result, this method is capable of solving large-scale electromagnetic and acoustic scattering problems for inhomogeneous objects embedded in a layered medium with an arbitrary number of layers. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
